That would DFI if you are looking at an NF4

from my local shop, my only choices are Asus A8N SLI (what I have)
Abit AN8 SLI or MSI K8N SLI Platinum (what I'm thinking of exchanging it to)

Thanks, so the Abit AN8 SLI would be the best alternative to the DFI? not the MSI KN8 SLI?

sorry to be so repetitive but if I'm going to exchange the board then I wanna be sure

I would love an AGP + PCIe board...so I can take advantage of the better AGP frequencies now,but be already prepared when PCIe is optimized so that its potential is fully reached.It would be cool if you could have a board with AGP and PCIe allowing a SLI connection between AGP and PCIe.Ah....what a pipe dream
